Hi Madman

Do yourself a favour and fly into Aeroden

I still think it’s one of the best looking fly in spots around with a looong runway and beautiful surrounding area to explore.

Is there any special precautions, radio calls etc because of the meatboms? Maybe I can get a couple of guys from Panorama to join.

Hi Relborg,

I picked this up from a post on AVcom "Usually only weekends. ATC usually know if they are active on 119.50" But I think we should contact someone and arrange for the fly in...Very dangerous if there are skydivers up on a load... ## ##

Hi Rudolph,

Ek onthou,goed om van jou af te hoor (^^)

Then it sounds like we going to have an awesome trip...I have flown there before,what I done was call them on 124.8 when I was 5 miles out asking if it clear to land.The pilot of the PAC 750 will then let you know if he is dropping a load or if all is on the ground,the groundsman will also let you know whats happening..when I flew there were skydivers in the air,so it was awesome to see the canopies open and the guys land...Once all the chutes were on the gound,I went in for landing.

So if we all go,then we will let them know when we about 10 miles out just to indicate that we are many trikes inbound and they should prepare the coffee ##

So come on all,it's really an awesome jol :!:

Awesome...

BTW,you landed couple weekends back at Circus for breakfast...I remember the registration.I have some nice pics of you guys coming in..will be sure to bring them tomorrow.

I hope you can Tailspin,its going to be a good one..plus you and I can head there together as it seems I will be the only one from Xwinds.

Perhaps I meet guys at the airfield Saturday and ask them to join us.

Blue Skies!!!
